How it helps

Built around how you actually work

One platform from quote to delivery — built so an engineering team never has to chase a supplier again.

01

One PO, every process

A single purchase order spans CNC, sheet metal and 3D printing across multiple materials and suppliers. One invoice, one point of contact, one tracked shipment for your entire BoM.

02

Rapid prototyping

No minimum order quantity. Order a single prototype today and scale to a full production run on the same platform — no retooling, no re-quoting, no new vendor.

03

AI-assisted instant quoting

Upload a STEP file and get a live cost breakdown in ~30 seconds, with Design-for-Manufacturing feedback that flags issues before you commit to an order.

04

Target-price matching

Name your per-piece target price. Our engine searches the certified partner network and tries to match it in seconds — so you stay on budget without back-and-forth.

05

Real-time order tracking

Follow every order through machining → finishing → QC → dispatch. Live status at each stage means no follow-up emails and no chasing updates.

06

50+ ISO-certified partners

A vetted network audited to a unified quality standard. Every part is dimensionally inspected before it ships — consistent results, batch after batch.

Real example

A hardware startup in the UK needed a custom brass prototype. Same drawing, same material, same tolerances — quoted on two platforms.

Why India

Why engineers are switching to India

A factual side-by-side. No inflated claims — the numbers speak for engineers who hate marketing fluff.

One gateway

The single front door to India's manufacturing ecosystem

India's strength is also its problem: hundreds of capable but fragmented workshops, hard to find, vet and manage from abroad. Partwork is the one connection point. You upload once and deal with us — we orchestrate the vetted network behind the scenes.

Use cases

From first prototype to ongoing supply

One platform that grows with the part — start with a single proof-of-concept and stay through volume production and repeat supply.

STAGE 01

Prototype

Validate form, fit and function fast. Order a single part with no minimum, instant pricing and DfM feedback before you commit.

1 – 10 pcs
STAGE 02

Production

Move the same validated design into a low-to-mid volume run — same platform, same partners, no retooling or re-quoting.

10 – 500 pcs
STAGE 03

Scalable manufacturing

Ramp to high volume across our certified network with capacity balancing, consistent quality and predictable lead times.

1,000+ pcs
STAGE 04

Supply chain management

Set up scheduled releases, repeat orders and managed inventory so parts arrive when your line needs them — one PO, one contact.

Questions

Frequently asked

Partwork is an on-demand manufacturing platform in India offering CNC machining (milling and turning), 3D printing (FDM, SLA, SLS, MJF, and DMLS), and sheet metal fabrication. We serve everything from single prototypes to production batches, with no minimum order quantity.

Traditional sourcing means slow RFQs, opaque pricing, and constant follow-ups. Partwork replaces that with instant online quotes, transparent pricing, real-time order tracking, and a single purchase order for your entire bill of materials across multiple processes, with no minimum order required.

Upload your STEP or STL file, select your process, material, tolerance, and surface finish, and get a price instantly, with no calls or emails needed. For most parts, you can confirm and order directly. For complex geometries, a Partwork engineer may review and refine the quote before it is finalised.

Instant quotes are currently available for CNC machining and 3D printing. Instant quoting for sheet metal fabrication is coming soon. For now, sheet metal enquiries are handled by our engineering team.

Yes. For most parts you can order directly from the platform. For complex geometries or tight-tolerance features that need additional review, a Partwork engineer will adjust the quote before confirmation. You always see the final price before committing.

Partwork supports a wide material range for CNC machining:

  • Aluminium alloys: 6061, 7075-T6, 6082
  • Carbon and alloy steels: EN8, EN19/4140, IS2062
  • Stainless steels: SS304, SS316, 17-4 PH
  • Titanium: Grade 2, Grade 5
  • Superalloys: Inconel 718, Hastelloy C276
  • Brass, copper, and engineering plastics: PEEK, Delrin, PTFE, Nylon

Standard tolerances of +/-0.125 mm are achievable across most materials. Tight tolerances down to +/-0.025 mm are available for critical features depending on geometry and material.

STEP (ISO 10303) is the universal, vendor-neutral standard for manufacturing data exchange. It exports faithfully from major CAD platforms such as SolidWorks, CATIA, Fusion 360, Creo, and NX, with no geometry loss and no version compatibility issues. Native formats behave differently across software versions, while STEP eliminates that risk. For 3D printing, STL files are also accepted.

Some services are fulfilled at Partwork's own facility. For orders requiring specific capabilities or regional proximity, parts are routed to our vetted manufacturing partner network across India, selected through capability audits and monitored on quality performance.

All parts, whether made in-house or through a partner, are held to the same Partwork quality standard. This includes dimensional inspection against your drawing or model, surface finish verification, and a pre-dispatch quality check carried out by both the partner and the Partwork quality team.

Typical minimum lead times are:

  • CNC machining: 2 to 3 business days
  • 3D printing: from 1 business day
  • Sheet metal fabrication: 2 to 3 business days

Actual lead time depends on order quantity, part complexity, material availability, and delivery location. Final lead time is confirmed at order placement.

Partwork is a manufacturing service, not a design bureau. A 3D model file is required to place an order: STEP for CNC, and STEP or STL for 3D printing. If you do not have a design file yet, you will need to work with a CAD designer before submitting.

Yes. Partwork.io is specially built for customers worldwide. You can easily upload your CAD files, receive instant quotations, and place orders from anywhere in the world. Prices are displayed in your local currency for a seamless ordering experience.
